The WDC WD800JD-60LSA5 is a hard drive from Western Digital that belongs to the Caviar series. Here is the detailed information about this model:
1. Technical details:
- Model name: WDC WD800JD-60LSA5
- Capacity: 80GB
- Form factor: 3.5 inches (standard for desktop PCs)
- Interface: SATA (Serial ATA) 1.0
- Rotation speed: 7,200 rpm
- Cache memory: 8 MB
- Average access time: Approximately 8.9 ms
- Average transfer rate: Up to 75 MB/s
- Fault tolerance: No RAID level or fault tolerance integrated (pure single disk)
2. Functions:
- SATA Interface: The hard drive uses the SATA interface, which offers a higher transfer speed than the older PATA (Parallel ATA) interface. This interface is also designed for easier cable routing in the case.
- NoiseGuard: A feature to reduce operating noise.
- Data Lifeguard: A technology from Western Digital to monitor and improve data security. It includes error correction and hard drive diagnostics features.
- IntelliSeek: Optimizes disk search for better performance and lower power consumption.
3. Areas of application:
- Desktop Computers: The WD800JD-60LSA5 is well suited for standard desktop PCs where 80GB of storage is sufficient.
- Office applications: For simple office applications such as word processing, email and simple data management, this hard drive is sufficient.
- Small data archives: This hard drive can be used as a storage medium for smaller data archives or older applications.
- Upgrade Option: For older systems that still support SATA, this hard drive can be an inexpensive upgrade to expand storage capacity.
4. Installation and Compatibility:
- SATA Connector: Installation is via a SATA connector found in most modern desktop motherboards. A SATA power cable is also required.
- Drivers: Since this is a relatively older hard drive, it should work with most operating systems without additional drivers that provide basic support for SATA hard drives.
5. Performance and reliability:
- Performance: The performance of this hard drive is solid for the standard at the time due to the 7,200 rpm and the 8 MB cache, but relatively low compared to modern hard drives and SSDs.
- Reliability: Western Digital is known for robust hard drives and the WD800JD-60LSA5 is no exception, but it does not offer modern fault tolerance features such as RAID or SSD-level data integrity.
6. Availability and Support:
- Market availability: Since this is an older model, the hard drive is probably only available used these days.
- Support: The official Western Digital support and warranty for this model may have expired. Please contact Western Digital directly for exact warranty information.
In summary, the WD800JD-60LSA5 is an older hard drive with basic features that is good for simple desktop applications and as a storage extension in older systems. For modern applications or high performance needs, a newer hard drive or SSD would be recommended.
